Rereleased in Summer 2016, From Chaos to Control: A Survival Guide for the Cancer Caregiver is the premier how-to
manual for caregivers tending
cancer patients. Written from firsthand knowledge, Betty Garrett’s touching story tells how she
learned to survive during her husband’s 18-month battle
with esophageal cancer. Hard
lessons learned and valuable research fill this small book with
encouragement and empowerment for anyone tending a loved one
through a debilitating disease.

The Companion will become a critical
member of your caregiving team. Filled with tools
for tracking your loved one’s progress through their
treatments, appointments, daily medications and more,
this organizer is the essential tool for keeping you
sane through this journey. It is designed to be easy
to use and even easier to keep handy. Use it to record
doctors’ orders, medical team phone numbers, daily
vital statistics, daily medication dosages, daily
nutrition intake, doctor appointments and treatment
schedules. The Companion even includes a list of things family
and friends can do to help-just check off those errands
and pull out the page to hand them. Having all this information
in one place will make it easier for you to communicate
with the medical team or to share with interim caregivers.
